In this paper we describe a new framework for the tracking of closed curves described through implicit surface modeling. The approach proposed here enables a continuous tracking al...
Modeling objects by probability density functions (pdf) is a new powerful method to represent complex objects in databases. By representing an object as a pdf, e.g. a Gaussian, it...
